Gotta Have It!
1.) My top toy this month is: "The backyard bug safari vacuum".
Do I really need to explain any more on this? What's not to love about sucking up creepy bugs with a battery operated vacuum with a built in magnifying glass? This toy rocks. It's entertained my little men (okay, and myself) for hours and it's under $13!
2.) My favorite family DVD this month is: Charlotte's Web.
Such a sweet story...kids liked it and we did too.
3.) My favorite music download for Mom is: "Sweet Escape" by Gwen Stefani. Put in the earphones and grocery shopping is much more enjoyable.
4.) My son's favorite music download is: "Crazy Car" by the Naked Brothers Band. I have to admit...this song is beginning to sound like fingernails down a chalkboard...but the kids love it.
5.) Favorite TV Series for the family: "Man vs. Wild", on the Discovery Channel. This show is awesome... so set your Tivos!
6.) My favorite company this month is: SupperSolutions
The food is yummy, their prices can't be beat, they're great to work with, and their concept make's a Mom's life easier!
